Every concept like workflow,trigger,and batchapex are having their own functionalities, advatages,and disadvantages.
i am giving you some simple difference betweenn trigger and workflow rules
Trigger workflow
1. Trigger can work on multiple objects 1. workflow rule apply on only one object.you can see at the begining
means you can include multiple objects of workflow it ask for which objects you want to use workflow.
like( Account,contact,case,opportunity,
any custom object,etc) in one trigger.
2. Trigger can work on both before event and after event 2. But wokflow work for only after event. for example: workflow will take action after saving
(before insert, after insert, before update, AU,etc). the data into the database in case of INSERT operation.
3. Trigger requires coding in APEX languange. 3. In workflow you do not need to write any APEX language progrmming.
4. you can perform very complex operation with 4. you can't perform coplex operation with workflow.
trigger.
Batch Apex: Batch apex means dividing the big transaction or operation in small small piece.Because salesofrce is having some limitation on
number of SOQL,SOSL, fetched records , heap size so if you are required to perform a big operation and if you think that it will violate or
it will cross the limitation given by salesforce then you can write the same operation with the help of BATCH APEX programming. and you can take
a breath of relief after going home.
I just gave you a simple idea about this . Now if you got your answer then please mark it as a best answer so that this post will work as a solution for other's problem.
Thanks
